8 MUST-TRY ACTIVITIES IN WULAI, TAIWAN
Known for their hot springs and as the most accessible Aboriginal Village from Taipei, 𝗪𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗶 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘁 is a destination not only for foreigners, but for locals as well. 🇹🇼
It’s one of the most interesting places we’ve visited during our stay in Taiwan and here are a few must-try activities if you are heading to Wulai:
Food crawl at Wulai Old Street
Stretches about 200 meters long, this street is packed with stores selling souvenirs and local delicacies. It’s recommended to have a leisurely stroll to thoroughly explore what these local stores are offering. A couple of must-try snacks include the grilled sticky rice and wild boar sausage.
Most of the stores open at 10am.
Wulai Scenic Train
Besides strolling along the Lover’s Trail or hopping in a cab, a charming alternative to reach Wulai Waterfalls is the scenic log cart ride. For just NTD 50, you can enjoy a 1.5 km journey from the starting station to the falls, which takes around 7 minutes.
Operates from 8am to 5pm (weather and holidays may affect this schedule)
